Hi Kate,

In an effort to be involved, I'm a bit confused, but is there a difference between the diigo, wiki, google group, netvibes ... are resources to be posted to diigo based on the subject areas on the wiki?

Marie -

I'll take the time to reply for others who might have the same question! The tags used in the diigo group are the same as the tags on the wiki. In diigo, when saving resources and sharing them with the group, the use of these tags will help aggregate resources into feeds. The diigo group is a collection of web resources, the wiki is currently the planning location, and the netvibes page is a collection of all of the related activity. This effort isn't simply one project, it's a movement. New projects can be created by advocates. If anyone has any more questions, PLEASE ask!

My students have been researching, writing a blog and creating podcast about digital citizenship. Some the sites they have really enjoyed are iKeep Safe http://www.ikeepsafe.org/ and NetSmartz http://www.netsmartz.org/index.aspx. Both of these sites have parent and educator sections too. iKeep Safe has a some downloads that can help parents monitor their students on MySpace and other Social Networking sites. Also there is a great ISTE book Digital Citizenship in Schools by Gerald Bailey & Mike Ribble which is a great resource. One of our county's ITS lent it to me and it is full of wonder activities.

If you have a chance please stop by my students blog and support them http://xit.manatee.k12.fl.us/index.php?blog=digital. We should have some podcast up by the end of next week.
